Hi, Sorry for crossposting.
I found that batik generate default attribute value for certain element is invalid against the DTD. For example in ImageElement batik generate default value attribute is xlink:show="replace" where the DTD says it must be xlink:show="embed". This will become problem because the SVG DOM generate by batik is not valid against the DTD. Here is the bugzilla id: 28035 However, I think the fix is quite simple, just replace the AttributeInitializer of the problem element with the value valid from the DTD. Here I provide the list of problem element with valid DTD value. see below. I also include the snipset of the DTD for quick reference (it is SVG 1.1 DTD though not 1.0) <!ENTITY % SVG.XLink.attrib "%XLINK.xmlns.attrib; %XLINK.pfx;type ( simple ) #FIXED 'simple' %XLINK.pfx;href %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;role %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;arcrole %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;title CDATA #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;show ( other ) 'other' %XLINK.pfx;actuate ( onLoad ) #FIXED 'onLoad' %SVG.XLink.extra.attrib;" > <!ENTITY % SVG.XLinkRequired.attrib "%XLINK.xmlns.attrib; %XLINK.pfx;type ( simple ) #FIXED 'simple' %XLINK.pfx;href %URI.datatype; #REQUIRED %XLINK.pfx;role %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;arcrole %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;title CDATA #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;show ( other ) 'other' %XLINK.pfx;actuate ( onLoad ) #FIXED 'onLoad' %SVG.XLinkRequired.extra.attrib;" > <!ENTITY % SVG.XLinkEmbed.attrib "%XLINK.xmlns.attrib; %XLINK.pfx;type ( simple ) #FIXED 'simple' %XLINK.pfx;href %URI.datatype; #REQUIRED %XLINK.pfx;role %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;arcrole %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;title CDATA #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;show ( embed ) 'embed' %XLINK.pfx;actuate ( onLoad ) #FIXED 'onLoad' %SVG.XLinkEmbed.extra.attrib;" > <!ENTITY % SVG.XLinkReplace.attrib "%XLINK.xmlns.attrib; %XLINK.pfx;type ( simple ) #FIXED 'simple' %XLINK.pfx;href %URI.datatype; #REQUIRED %XLINK.pfx;role %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;arcrole %URI.datatype; #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;title CDATA #IMPLIED %XLINK.pfx;show ( new | replace ) 'replace' %XLINK.pfx;actuate ( onRequest ) #FIXED 'onRequest' %SVG.XLinkReplace.extra.attrib;" > - SVGOMScriptElement.java --> %SVG.XLink.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMImageElement.java --> %SVG.XLinkEmbed.attrib; * type = simple * show = embed * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMUseELement.java --> %SVG.XLinkEmbed.attrib; * type = simple * show = embed * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMCursorElement.java --> %SVG.XLinkRequired.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMColorProfileElement.java --> %SVG.XLink.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMPatternElement.java --> %SVG.XLink.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMAltGlyphElement.java --> %SVG.XLink.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMTextPathElement.java --> %SVG.XLinkRequired.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMMPathElement.java --> %SVG.XLinkRequired.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMGlyphRefElement.java --> %SVG.XLink.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMFEImageElement.java --> %SVG.XLinkEmbed.attrib; * type = simple * show = embed * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMGradientElement.java --> %SVG.XLink.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad - SVGOMFilterElement.java --> %SVG.XLink.attrib; * type = simple * show = other * actuate = onLoad Regards Tonny Kohar -- Sketsa SVG Graphics Editor http://www.kiyut.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
